Although, the constructible significance of life towards Sociology boost out gradually, it's a pity that Sociology still hasn't taken a serious consideration due to the positivism impact on traditional Sociology. It is clear that life-style theory will take a more important role with the tendency of Sociology being back to life.The essay analyzes the constructible function of life-style by using the method of function analysis, literature analysis and case study. Firstly, combing the history skeleton of Sociology, explaining why the interpreting competence of Sociology declines following the instruction of positivism. Sociology at a crisis realized that it is necessary to being back to life world. Symbolic interactionism, Ethnomethodology and Post-modernist re-construct theories in all have a different idea in their own angle, which establishes an excellent base for life theory entering Sociology.Secondly, have a deep research down to the constructible function of life theory. Life-style theory tallies with the demand of enlarging Sociology border and filling the gap between subject and object. The study starts the work with Marx's History Materialism and Practice theory, exploiting his valuable heritage. Analyzes the precondition of produce process (life-produce) and replaces the production determinism by produce/living inter-construct paradigm. Combining with the production of post-modernist theory gives an answer of how to enhance Sociology imagination and how to rebuild traditional Sociology concepts.Thirdly, analyzes the case of"Immigrants and Urban"which is seen as the latest successful production of Japanese Urban Sociology. The study shows the process of how the life-style framework rebuilds the American-style Urban Sociology paradigm and what kind of apocalypse it gives us.What we discover, is life-style which is a basically survival status taking an important part to social development. Using life-style framework to rebuild the Sociology will help us to know more about the matter of exceeding of post-modern society.
